Gleaning Facebook: Fall Leaves in the Drought

Walking along our Armuchee Elem Nature Trail this afternoon... this drought is terrible! But the woods are lovely. The drought as erased some of the smaller streams on Lavendar Mountain. Here are two short video explorations. I posted the second on Facebook and include the comment on that video from Anita Stewart.







They maples are gorgeous.

There is at least some water, almost obscured by the floating fall leaves, here near the beginning of the trail.

What a beautiful time to walk the world's most beautiful elementary school nature trail (IMO).



As you can see, I love to see the rainbow of fall colors ...

...floating on the stream.







We call this informal cluster of benches near the southern edge of school property "The Outpost".  A great place for a story or lesson when the weather is right


Farther up the stream, where may students and I have in previous years waded to find crawdads... 

...dust.

Here there should v=be two small streams merging their waters...

...now dry as a bone.

I need to talk a walk on the trail....it has been years since I have gone down the trail that so many worked so hard to develop. Miss those days.

By the way....Terrell....love this video with your shadow.
